Vertical Blinds

We Sell Vertical Blinds

Vertical blinds are a great addition to any room with wide windows, patio doors, or sliding glass doors. Vertical windows, which are also known as verticals, offer privacy and sunlight protection during hot summers and will keep the heat in during those cold winter days. As the name suggests, these vertical blinds are blinds whose slats are arranged vertically and are all connected to a sliding head rail.

Oftentimes, vertical blinds will have wide, long slats with many loose gaps in-between them. They offer a graceful, but relaxed look that makes them perfect for wider windows, patio doors and covering sliding glass doors. One of the key features of vertical blinds is how they open from right to left rather than from top to bottom. Most vertical blinds have a wand or a cord that allows users to close and open these blinds, as well as adjust the angle of the slats. Most modern vertical blinds also have a motorized opening and closing mechanisms.

Common Types of Vertical Blinds

In general, all vertical blinds have slats that will vertically drop down from the head rail. Many of the traditional vertical blind versions you see looked similar and allows for homeowners to simply adjust the amount of light that enters the room. However, these traditional versions have given way to different types of vertical blinds. Now you will see different types of vertical blinds in homes. Here is a rundown of some of the more common types of vertical blinds you see.

Vertical Blinds with Chain & Cord

These blinds work by pulling on a cord and chain hung from the side. Depending on how you pull the cord, you can either open or close the blinds or bring the panes to the side. These types of vertical blinds are often made from plastic.

Cordless Blinds

Oftentimes, cords can be a safety concern for pets and children, which has prompted designers to make vertical blinds with a small plastic wand attached to its control end. You can choose to open or close your vertical blinds by twisting the wand. However, you can also pull the wand along the track to move the vertical blinds from one side to the other. There are also motorized vertical blinds, which can be controlled using a remote. They also do not require wands or a chain/cord.

Sheer/Decorative Vertical Blinds

Typically, you will see vertical blinds made of materials that are fairly difficult to see through. This is to create some privacy with the blinds. However, due to the increase in the popularity of vertical blinds, decorative and sheer vertical blinds that you can see through have emerged in the marketplace.
